Enthusing

This is my first blog created to track my experience over the next 12 months or so in completing an ICA lifecoaching course. Today, I had my first teleclass led by Ton who was enthusing, of course! He allowed the class to discuss various experiences in relation to the topic without cutting anyone short. My thought - probably driven by my teaching experience - is whether he completed his content. Or, is the content relatively small, allowing for significant learning by discovery. A couple of key points:
  1. Enthuse after the client has taken a decision and after you've established a relationship with the coachee
  2. There's a step to the plate moment which can be difficult to overcome. The coachee is then in a 'stretching zone'. To enthuse will now give the energy they need to take the necessary steps

Well, I guess I'll improve my blogging skills as I become more aware of the expectations of the course.
